🍷 WINE TASTING WITH A PURPOSE! 🍷At Ye Olde Two Brewers, we don't just host wine tastings for a laugh (although, judging by last night's antics, there's certainly plenty of that! 😂).There's a method to our madness!Our mission is simple: to find genuinely great wines that YOU will love drinking.Last night, we put seven wines to the test in a blind tasting. Independent wine merchants went head-to-head with supermarket favourites. No fancy labels, no clever marketing, just good old-fashioned taste buds and some very honest opinions!And we have a winner! 🏆🥂 COAST TO COAST SAUVIGNON BLANC 2024🇳🇿 Marlborough, New ZealandA beautifully crisp, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc bursting with tropical passionfruit, gooseberry and citrusy freshness.Supplied by Gardner & Beedle (Tisbury) this little beauty got a resounding thumbs-up from our tasting crew — especially Amanda! 👍And because we listen to our customers, it's officially joining our wine list! 🎉That's what our tasting evenings are all about. Bringing people together, having a giggle, discovering something new and making sure the wines behind our bar are wines worth coming back for.A massive thank you to everyone who joined us. The company was fabulous, the opinions were wonderfully unfiltered, and some of the artwork on those tasting sheets was frankly unforgettable! 😂Great wine. Great people. Great little pub. ❤️🍷 Tell us — what's your favourite wine? We might just put it to the test at our next tasting!#YeOldeTwoBrewers #Shaftesbury #WineTastingWithAPurpose #SauvignonBlanc #CoastToCoastWine #NewZealandWine #DorsetPubs #SupportYourLocal #WineLovers #IndependentPubs #GreatWineGreatCompany …
